About

I am a lifelong musician with a passion for live music. In addition to performing with various music acts, I've been teaching Beginner Guitar courses for adults through the Stamford Public School system, and I'm starting a teaching job in March 2019 for children with the Norwalk Recreation & Parks Department. I'm also a live music performance coach working with singers, and I'm a drum circle facilitator as well. Please visit my website for more details at: raysimonelli.com

My joy in life is in helping people get started on their music journeys. I love watching the progression of the improvement in students over time.
